Ivanka Trump's Book Party at the Trump Tower

It might have been a meeting of the junior committee on Wednesday evening as younger members of boldfaced family names, including Jamie Johnson, Bara Tisch, and Topper Mortimer (with new girlfriend Valerie Boster on his arm), showed up to the Trump Tower in New York City to congratulate Ivanka Trump on publishing The Trump Card: Playing to Win in Work and Life.. Tourists hung over the railing to gawk at the party below (and undoubtedly at Donald's distinctive hairstyle) as Ivanka alternately signed books and lingered by her soon-to-be husband, Jared Kushner. Clad in jewelry from her own collection, one of her other ventures, Ivanka discussed her plans for the future. "My focus will always be on real estate, but I'm always interested in entrepreneurial pursuits."

Also mingling in the cavernous stairwell were the rest of the Trump contingent (Melania, Barron, Eric, and Donald Jr.), as well as Andrew Saffir and Daniel Benedict. "There seems to be a mass exodus from New York going on at the moment," remarked documentarian Jack Bryan on the impact the recession has had on the city and its real estate. "It happens every five years or so, but they all come back eventually with tears in their eyes!" Only days away from her wedding, Ivanka, who was looking radiant and remarkably composed, offered advice to other brides: “Be relaxed, try to enjoy the moment, and remember: it's just a great party!”
